We’re a weekend away from the iPhone 16 launch occasion, the place Apple will even unveil the brand new Apple Watch Sequence 10 and AirPods 4. We already suppose we all know every little thing about all these units, however last-minute leaks can all the time spoil extra surprises.
Nevertheless, the picture under might be not considered one of them. It’s making the rounds on X because the purported Apple Watch Sequence 10 design. The render reportedly comes from pairing an Apple Watch with an iPhone operating iOS 18.1 beta.
That’s the beta launch that allows you to attempt the primary Apple Intelligence options on the iPhone 15 Professionals. I don’t have entry to the iOS 18.1 beta as a result of I don’t personal an iPhone 15 Professional. Additionally, Apple Intelligence isn’t obtainable in Europe at this level, and it’s unclear when Apple will launch it.
Leaker Majin Bu posted on X the next photos that supposedly come from the iOS 18.1 beta.
The leaker is true that the Apple Watch within the picture appears to be like barely totally different. This system has a lot thinner bezels than the earlier variations. Rumors say that Apple will enhance the display dimension of the Apple Watch Sequence 10 fashions. Older reviews declare the brand new sizes are 45mm and 49mm, changing the present 41mm and 45mm choices.
Current leaks from the identical Bu point out the Apple Watch Sequence 10 display bump could be minimal. We could be taking a look at 42mm and 46mm sizes as an alternative of the 41mm and 45mm choices Apple provided with earlier Watch fashions.
If we assume for a second that Bu’s photos within the tweet above are correct, there’s no approach of measuring the display.
Then once more, the pictures may not be correct. 9to5Mac says it verified the interior recordsdata of the most recent iOS 18 and iOS 18.1 betas and they don’t function new photos. As an alternative, the rendered illustration above could be a bug.
That’s to not say Apple’s software program can’t provide any last-minute leaks. It occurred earlier than and will all the time occur for the Apple Watch Sequence 10 earlier than Monday’s launch occasion.
iOS 18.1 beta imagery apart, Bu posted one other set of photos that appear to help the 42/46mm sizes.
He claims that Apple will cut back the bezels on the Apple Watch Sequence 10, which might clarify the 1mm show dimension enhance. The brand new wearables also needs to function curved screens like earlier fashions.
All I do know is that I’ll get the smaller Apple Watch Sequence 10 as quickly because it’s obtainable for preorder. My 40mm Apple Watch SE 2 wants a few battery charging periods day by day as battery life has dropped to 80%. That’s not ok for my well being and health wants. I’ll scoop up the smaller Apple Watch Sequence 10 no matter how massive the show turns into.
